US-born former Army vet known as 'The American' fights alongside Al Qaeda | Fox News


He's a U.S.-trained soldier turned Muslim warrior who moves between America and countries where the winds of the Arab spring blow, fighting alongside jihadists and America-hating terrorists while celebrating his bloody exploits on YouTube videos.

Eric Harroun, 30, grew up in Phoenix before joining the U.S. Army in 2000. Although Harroun was never deployed during his three-year hitch, he has seen plenty of combat fighting with Syrian rebels and, more recently, Jabhat al-Nusra, a group the U.S. State Department classifies as an alias for Al Qaeda in Iraq.

For Harroun, who claims to have been arrested twice by Egyptian security forces in 2011 and traveled extensively in Lebanon and Turkey, the war in Syria seems to be an opportunity to kill in the name of a cause. He said Israel may be next on his agenda -- specifically the Palestinian territories -- citing “atrocities” that “Israel is doing to the Palestinians.

"Maybe Gaza is next for me, maybe [the] West Bank," said Harroun, whose Facebook wall bears the quote: “The only good Zionist is a dead Zionist.”

Guess he'll expect the Department of Veterans Affairs to pick up his medical bills should a Hellfire missile happens to explode in his vicinity.

He's a traitor during wartime. Firing squad when he's caught.

Ok, no firing squad. We'll hang him instead.

Why would Eric Harroun be viewed as a traitor? Afterall isn't he doing overtly what Obama is doing covertly, namely supporting the rebels fighting Syria?

I'm sure there are some that think he is a hero. :sarcasm:

seems like could just fly a drone with a big magnet on the bottom of over top of where they suspect him to be and just pluck him out of the crowd.
No missle, no shooting nothing, just standing there one second, flying away the next.

U.S. army veteran charged for conspiring with Al-Qaeda group to topple Syrian regime


ALEXANDRIA, Va. — A U.S. Army veteran is charged with conspiring with an Al-Qaeda group to wage war against the Syrian regime.

Eric Harroun of Phoenix was charged Thursday in federal court in northern Virginia with conspiring to use a weapon of mass destruction outside the U.S. An affidavit states Harroun has been engaged in military action in Syria, siding with rebel forces against the Syrian government. It says he used rocket-propelled grenades in the fighting earlier this year.

On his Facebook page, he claimed credit for downing a Syrian helicopter.

I am waiting for the headline that Obama is conspiring with Al Qaeda. Oh wait, that will never happen because the msm protects Obama.
